In Their Words: “Somewhere in a hazy, black & white, overcast New York City full of briefcases and energy is where I found ‘Paris.’ It was a song I wanted to write for a while but I didnāt know how to approach it. The first line was with me for a few days before I sat down to write, and by the time I was at the kitchen table with my notebook and guitar, all I could see in my head was SoHo in New York City in this strange 1950s kind of way. I mixed that imagery with how out of place someone can feel in the dating world and thatās where the song lives. It’s probably my favorite song on the record.” — Trae Sheehan
